Locar Automotive Expands Partnership with JETOUR with New Al Ahsa Branch
Locar Automotive has expanded its presence in Saudi Arabia with the opening of a new branch in Al Mubarraz, Al Ahsa. The official opening ceremony was held on July 22, 2026, in partnership with National Motors Supplies (NMS), the exclusive dealer of JETOUR vehicles in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The new facility marks Locar Automotive’s second branch in Al Ahsa and its eighth branch across the Kingdom. The showroom features the latest JETOUR models, reflecting the brand’s growing presence as one of the fastest-growing Chinese automotive brands in the Saudi market in recent years.
The opening ceremony was attended by a senior delegation from National Motors Supplies, led by Mr. Karim Hussein, General Manager of Sales & Marketing; Mr. Hamdan Qablawi, General Manager of Dealer Sales; and Mr. Fadi Nafea, General Manager of Sales.
Also in attendance were Mr. Sattam Al-Qahtani, Founder of Wethaq Group, the parent company of Locar Automotive, and Mr. Alawi Al-Musallam, Locar Sales Supervisor in Al Ahsa, alongside representatives from Al Ahsa Municipality and several banks and financing companies operating in the Kingdom.
As part of the expansion, Locar Automotive announced plans to soon launch an authorized service center and an outlet for genuine JETOUR spare parts. The initiative represents another step in the company’s expansion across the Eastern Province in collaboration with National Motors Supplies, providing customers with an integrated ownership experience covering vehicle sales, maintenance, after-sales services, and genuine spare parts.
The expansion is also expected to contribute to creating new employment opportunities for local talent across sales, maintenance, and after-sales operations, supporting Locar Automotive’s continued growth and service network expansion throughout the Kingdom.
Commenting on the opening, Mr. Sattam Al-Qahtani, Founder of Wethaq Group, the parent company of Locar Automotive, said:
“The opening of our eighth branch in Saudi Arabia and our second in Al Ahsa comes in response to the strong demand for JETOUR vehicles. We remain committed to bringing a comprehensive customer experience closer to our customers and providing services that meet their evolving needs.”
The new branch further strengthens the collaboration between Locar Automotive and National Motors Supplies, supporting their shared objective of expanding access to JETOUR vehicles and services and reaching a wider customer base across Saudi Arabia.
Founded in 2014 in Riyadh under Wethaq International Group Ltd., Locar Automotive continues to pursue its expansion strategy through a growing network of branches supported by authorized service centers, with the aim of providing comprehensive automotive solutions tailored to the diverse needs of customers in the Saudi market.
The partnership between Locar Automotive and National Motors Supplies is expected to expand further in the coming period, with plans to open an additional JETOUR branch as part of Locar Automotive’s growth strategy during 2026.
